class in IronPython?

[Mike Greaves]

I see from Google groups that I'm not the only one to have this
problem...

In Jim H.'s new IronPython 0.6:

mono bin/IronPythonConso le.exe

class myClass:

.... pass
....
System.NullRefe renceException: Object reference not set to an instance
of an object

....

Am I missing something basic?
Yes, I suspected Mono, and so tried it in .NET 1.1 on an XP
machine...
And actual working (non-empty) classes don't work either.

Is the class mechanism not yet implemented? Does Jim say as much in a
doc or a posting somewhere?

Thanks for any insight.

I think you will find that classes don't (yet) work in interactive mode.
Try putting the class in a .py file and using that.

Thanks. I *was* trying to debug a .py file in the first place... by
trying snippets of it interactively.. . Then I failed to realize that
I was getting a *different* exception in interactive mode...
